18 month project is winding down. I suspect it will have 1 use in the next 4 years we are supporting it.

The tool is basically a copy of the S3 browser, only shittier. The license for the S3 browser is only 20 bucks btw.

    A design professor actually proposed this idea to us. Make the user feel how the computer is working, so they can appreciate the result more.

      Take the same approach with tickets: Finish one in 10 minutes? You just get a new one. Finish the same one in 2 days, and claim "Pff, that was a tough one, but I did it!" - Makes the Product Owner think the Developer is working, and appreciates the result way more

          Then sneak in a test case that fails if the commit is made by Ron and ask Ron to implement it in an hour, all tests green. 😈

            Eh that's grounds for dismissal or at least a reprimand.

            You always talk the shit, you never write it down.
